This means you build a flash cart and instead of buying some NAND flash memory and a controller for it you buy a write once ROM chip or something and wire that in instead.Īs for the DS there was an R4 designer kit doing the rounds a couple of months back but I know of nothing like the above for DS hardware.Īctual games being sold- there was that homebrew challenge but most other things are just cart clones, those dodgy 30 in 1 games you get from tourist trap shops or lucky lucky men or hacked games out of China.

It tends not to happen- if you are going to all the effort of making something that can communicate with the GBA or DS you usually spend the cost of a couple of rounds of beer and instead use rewritable memory (give or take rewriting circuitry) thus making a flash cart.
